I currently have two cats. One is a few years older than my 10 month old cat. I just had the younger cat spayed and since I brought her home to heal, my older cat is hissing at her like she doesn't know her. Why is she being so hostile and will she get over it?

The reason why is because the other cat only smells what the other cat is coated on. It should clear up in a few months, but to be on the secure side re-introduce them  step-by-step and slowly but surely they should be able to recognize one another and start going back to being good friends. I know this from experience, being a pure cat person, only having my two dogs for protection.
